Note di degustazione
Pale-medium yellow. Bright aromas of lemon, lime, peach skin and nut oil. Densely packed and tactile but with lovely minty lift and energy to its lightly saline fruit salad flavors. Tactile and slightly phenolic but still shows a lovely light touch. Finishes with resounding minerality. Half of this wine is from vines between 25 and 30 years of age, the other half from 85-year-old vines.

Floral/herby true-to-terroir nose. Relatively full bodied and unashamedly fruity and honeyed. Old-style Meursault! Rather hot on the finish. (JR)
The 2013 Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières was reticent on the nose after the more open Narvaux and Chevalier 2013s. However, with encouragement it begins to open and offer attractive walnut and smoky notes, very typical of this vineyard. The palate is nicely balanced with a crisp line of acidity and plenty of citrus fruit laced with hazelnut and smoke toward the linear, quite saline finish. This is a conservative Genevrieres that should age and offer more with bottle age.
High-toned aromas of soft citrus fruits and spices. Sweet, spicy and rich, showing excellent lift to its orchard and stone fruit flavors. Penetrating, juicy wine with a spicy, long finish. But hard to assess with confidence today as there's still a lot of malic acidity remaining. This was the first chardonnay vineyard Jobard harvested in 2013 (he actually began with his Volnay Santenots pinot).
